    摘要: A locking apparatus for locking to a movable frame includes a base, a latching hook which is pivotable relative to the base about a pivot pin extending in a transverse direction between a locking position and an unlocking position, and a latching apparatus for blocking the latching hook on the base in the locking position. The latching hook has a latching portion and a control portion, and the latching portion has a capturing contour for receiving a profile of a frame in the locking position. The latching hook is arranged such that, when a locking force is applied to the control portion, the latching hook is pivoted from the unlocking position into the locking position, and the latching apparatus is configured and arranged such that the latching hook is blocked automatically by the latching apparatus when the locking position is reached, in which the latching apparatus comes into a blocking position. A driverless transport vehicle includes a drive device, an electrical energy store for supplying power to the drive device, and a control unit for controlling the drive device, at least one locking apparatus.

    摘要: In a method for operating a storage system that includes a plurality of rack aisles, each of which includes a storage rack and a vehicle that is movable along the storage rack in a longitudinal direction, each vehicle including a lifting device, each lifting device including a receiving device for receiving a load, the receiving device being movable in a vertical direction, the electrical energy that is generated during operation by one of the vehicles in one of the rack aisles is supplied to another rack aisle. A storage system includes a plurality of rack aisles, each of which includes a storage rack and a vehicle that is movable along the storage rack in a longitudinal direction. Each of the vehicles includes a lifting device that includes a receiving device for receiving a load. The receiving device is movable in a vertical direction. The storage system is operable by the method.

    摘要: A device for holding objects, e.g., driverless transport vehicles, includes a rack main frame and a pivot arm which can be pivoted relative to the rack main frame about a pivot axis extending in a longitudinal direction. The pivot arm has a first strut and a second strut which extend at a right angle to the pivot axis and are disposed parallel to each other at an offset in the longitudinal direction. One cutout is provided in the end region of each of the struts remote from the pivot axis for receiving respective fastening shafts.

    摘要: In a method for operating a technical installation that includes an outer zone, a danger zone, an access zone which provides for access from the outer zone to the danger zone, a light curtain for monitoring the access zone, and at least one mobile system: a protective field is generated and activated in the access zone by the light curtain before entry of the at least one mobile system into the access zone; when the at least one mobile system approaches the access zone, a mobile communication unit of the at least one mobile system transmits a request signal to a stationary communication unit of the light curtain; and after reception of the request signal by the stationary communication unit the protective field is deactivated by the light curtain. A technical apparatus is configured to carry out the method.

    摘要: In a part having a rotationally symmetric region and a machining surface, and a method for manufacturing the part from a blank, the machining surface is finished in a planar manner. The normal direction of the machining surface is oriented parallelly to the axis of symmetry, e.g., an axis of rotation, of the rotationally symmetric region. The part includes an annular groove that extends around in a circumferential direction, e.g., with respect to the axis of symmetry. In a circumferential angular region covered by the machining surface, the annular groove is incomplete, e.g., removed down to the groove base of the annular groove, and in a circumferential angular region not covered by the machining surface, the annular groove is complete, e.g., the machining surface bordering on the annular groove and/or leading into the annular groove.

    摘要: A gearbox includes a housing, which has a lower housing part onto which an upper housing part is placed. The lower housing part and the upper housing part are in physical contact along a contact surface, for example, so that the contact surface between the lower and upper housing part lies in a plane and/or is planar. Cooling fins are situated on the housing, the cooling fins having a curved characteristic such that a portion of an axially directed airflow streaming along the housing, and thus in particular an airflow that is streaming parallel to the axis of rotation of the input shaft, is deflected in a transverse direction between two cooling fins disposed closest to each other in the axial direction in each case, the axial direction, for example, being parallel to the contact surface, e.g., the plane.
